I also love how she does not sport a tan with this summer dress. Not only does it emphasize “classic victorian”, it simply is fresh to see someone work with their natural skin tone (what beautiful skin too!).

She looks interesting and somewhat mysterious. A fashionable apparition. Well done.

I agree that she’d look great in anything, though I do like the dress. And, speaking as a naturally skinny gal who recognizes another, a pie probably wouldn’t do anything to her except taste good. And maybe stain that dress.

i love all your gentlemen pics but surely there exists a world beyond fledgling models in ny? i live in tokyo where you definitely have the full spectrum of style and would enjoy seeing, as another reader aptly describes ‘ms bald fat guy’ with panache.

she’s clearly naturally skinny, so i’m not going to say anything about feeding her pie, but, what is going ON with her right ankle? it looks like she’s about to snap her leg off.

dress = cute, a bit to small on her yes but that’s what we tall girls have to suffer with; but i so wish the massive ruffled collar wasn’t so little girlish. or that there was a bit more of something around her face (fabulous earrings?) to offset the child-like quality of it.

I suspect that many (not all) women who don’t fit their or others’ idea of how their bodies ‘should’ look tend not to dress as stylishly and call attention to themselves with their clothes, so they’re less likely to be the kind of stylishly dressed woman Sartorialist captures. Whereas we guys don’t care, if we’re fat and bald and ugly, we’ll still try to show our stuff. C’mon larger women, you all are hot too — show us what you got!

Love your blog but don’t like this post — dress is cute and all and agree with another poster that the lipstick makes the shot — but she is way too skinny (whether naturally or self-induced) and to me doesn’t project a healthy trim … just skinny. I have lived in NYC and have seen plenty of size 8-12 women look great, can we some of those photos please?

I love the dress and the fact that the fit is slightly off – too small in the bodice and too short in the hem. Her lip stick and pale skin really sets off the look. I would just lose the bulky bags – have someone else carry them for her – on the other side of the street.

Pretty woman. I like her pale skin against the white dress.But,me no likey the frilly shawl collar thing around her neck.IMO the dress would look infinitely better if it were either spaghetti straps or strapless.
